You know what they say—everything old is new again. And in this case, it’s ’70s-esque, kitschy-fun iron-on patches. It doesn’t get much more old-school than that.
The ever-creative team at Ampersand Design Studio came up with the retro-rainbow motif. It’s a hand-drawn script—not a font like you might think—that owners Morgan Georgie and Carrie Kiefer designed a few years ago. They applied it to several formats—T-shirts, glassware, enamel pins and the embroidered iron-on patch. Even better? They’re produced here in KC.
Seems sales of the patch have been through the roof. Plus, given the inexpensive $10 price, it makes for a perfect gift. “We love all of the options you have with an iron-on! Jackets, backpacks, hats—we could go on!” according to their website.
